‘I love that,’ says Gautam Gambhir

3 min readJun 5, 2026 05:22 PM IST The ICC’s decision to allow pink balls during day Tests was welcomed by India head coach Gautam Gambhir on Friday who said it would give an opportunity for teams to get results in matches affected by the weather. “I love that. The reason is because I always believe that if there’s an opportunity to get a result, you should always have that opportunity,” Gambhir said on the eve of the one-off Test against Afghanistan. “Imagine if you are playing the last Test match before the World Test Championship final and you have the chance to win that Test match and qualify. Because of bad light it’s not happening. I am all for it if there is an opportunity to get the result and both the teams agree to it,” he added.

He has only played a handful of Test matches. And he started his Test career in England, which we all know is …

US planning to drop charges against Gautam Adani over ‘willingness’ to invest, create jobs: Report

US authorities plan to drop fraud charges against Indian billionaire Gautam Adani which were first unveiled in 2024, according to a Bloomberg report citing persons familiar with the matter. The legal charges against the Adani group represented a serious challenge to the firm’s ability to conduct business in the United States. (Adani Group) In a significant breakthrough for the Adani Group, the US Justice Department and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) could resolve charges related to Gautam Adani as soon as this week, roughly 18 months after they accused the Indian magnate of involvement in a bribery and fraud scheme.

In 2024, the US Attorney’s office in New York’s Brooklyn released a criminal indictment which alleged that Gautam Adani, his nephew Sagar Adani and other executives were involved in a scheme to bribe …

Wassan, a former Delhi selector, alleged that players were unhappy with the aggressive nature of Gambhir’s leadership.

The two-time World Cup winner later said that he was not made aware of the decision by the selectors. Speaking on the Vickey Lalwani show on YouTube, Wassan, who appeared in four Tests and nine ODIs for India, detailed Gambhir’s aggressive nature from his formative days. ‘He will try to harm you’ “I have known him personally since he was a child. I have had my issues with him. With him, it’s about my way or the highway. He is like that, and he would bully a lot, even in Delhi …

We only greeted one another and did not even exchange our numbers. Everyone was surprised as to how is the chemistry so good between the two of us? As in she was in her zone and I was in my zone. We hardly spoke. She had got married …
